Stacie Wong is a Principal at GLUCK+. Named by Fast Company as a top 10 most innovative companies in architecture, the firm is recognized for Architect Led Design Build. Stacie’s considerable design and construction experience began 26 years ago with the Yale Building Project's design-build of a single-family residence in New Haven. Ever since, she has been involved in educational, commercial and residential work across the United States. Stacie brings expertise in leading strategic planning, research, programming, and community stakeholder engagement with private and public institutional clients, as well as stewarding the design and construction for the successful completion of many technically complex projects. She has been an advocate for architects’ involvement in construction to increase their agency in the building process and impact on the design of the physical environment, including features in Metropolis Magazine, Wallpaper* and Architectural Design (UK). Notable award-winning projects include ONStage at Kaufman Astoria Studios in New York City, Pilkey Lab, a LEED Gold science research building for Duke University Marine Laboratory on their coastal campus; Artist Retreat in Upstate New York; and The East Harlem School in New York City. Current projects in progress include Van Sinderen Plaza, affordable housing in East New York and City Seminary of New York's campus in Harlem. Stacie received her Bachelor of Arts in Architecture from the University of California at Berkeley and a Master of Architecture from Yale University.  

In this episode we talk about:

  • Stacie’s desire to become a complete architect, and know how a building actually gets put together, led to her interest in design-build projects
  • How GLUCK+ scaled up its design-build work to include both single-family residences and public institutional work
  • Stacie’s experience working as a Superintendent on a construction site
  • Advice for emerging professionals on navigating construction sites and Construction Administration 
  • Why there’s no shame in not knowing everything, and the best way to learn
  • How GLUCK+ is set up so everyone works on both the design and construction side
  • Why there is less liability in design-build than people may think
